Professor: Good morning, Lorna and Ian! I’m glad that you both chose to make it. You’re the only two who take the names down for this literature test. So let’s get started, shall we? I would like to go through some aspects of the novel, The Secret Garden, with you before the test next week. Do take some notes and feel free to interrupt me if you have questions.
Ian: Hey Lorna, have you got a spare pen?
Lorna:  Yeah, here you are.
Professor: All right, so, the story follows two key characters. You should refer to them as protagonists who go by the names of Mary Lennox and Colin Craven. The story is set shortly after the turn of the twentieth century, and the narrative tracks the development of the protagonists as they learn to overcome their own personal troubles together.
Lorna: That’s quite a common storyline, isn’t it?
Professor: Yes, you’re right, Lorna. Could you share something you’ve already known about the character of Mary?
Lorna: Well, in the beginning, she is an angry and rude child who is orphaned after a cholera outbreak and forces to leave India for the United Kingdom to go to her uncle’s house in Yorkshire.
Professor: Exactly, and there she comes across Colin who spends his days in an isolated room, believing himself to be permanently crippled with no hope of ever possible of walking. The two strike up a friendship and gradually learn by encouraging each other that both of them can have a healthy, happy and fulfilled life.
Ian: Is there any need for us to remember these details for the exam?
Professor: Just the fundamental structure. Examiners don’t want to read a plot summary. They know what the book is about. Focus on narrative techniques instead, such as point of view.
Lorna:  What does that mean?
Professor: It’s all about how we see the story. For example, it’s written based on what is called an ’omniscient narrator’, which means all-knowing. So, readers can feel the same as how all the characters do about things, including what they like and don’t like, and what their motivations are in the story.

选项

答案20th / twentieth century

解析 定位句为“The story is set shortly after the turn of the twentieth century…”。定位词虽然没有原词重现,但可以跟踪前文内容自然得出。在介绍完书本名称、主要人物之后,自然就到了笔记中介绍故事发生时间这一层,所以只要紧跟说话人的谈话内容,自然就可得到答案。
